Problem
Adjacent shades do not roll up evenly.
Solution
It is considered normal if the roll-up on adjacent shades is within
5
/
16
" of each
other. If one shade rolls up tighter than another, repeatedly lower and raise
both shades. The shade may need to be reset. Refer to “Resetting the Shade (If
Necessary)” on page 15.
Check that the shade fabric is not catching on any brackets or components.
Check that the fabric winds evenly and does not rub against the headrail. If
uneven, see “Adjusting the Bottom Rail Weight” below.
Problem
The shade raises or lowers unevenly, the bottom rail is not level when fully
raised, or the fabric winds unevenly or starts to rub against one end of the
headrail.
Solution
Check if the window is out-of-square by measuring the diagonals.
Check that the installation brackets are level. Shim (not provided) to level,
if necessary.
If the headrail is level and the window is square, adjust the bottom rail weight.
Adjusting the Bottom Rail Weight
To adjust, access the bottom
rail weight from the back of
the front shade.
Push up on the weight clips
to release.
Slide the weight in 1" increments, toward the side where the fabric is gathering.
Test the shade. Lower the front shade all the way and check that the bottom rail
is level. Adjust the weight until the fabric winds evenly and does not gather on
either side.
After final adjustments, slide the weight clips back into place.
Apply Skew Adjustment Tape to the Rear Roller Shade
Using the tape strips and instruction guide in the Skew Adjustment Kit included
with your order, place the tape strips onto the window side of the rear roller
shade fabric. The number of tape strips and their placement depends on the
type and severity of the skew, as explained in the instruction guide.
